Expert Shield - THE Screen Protector for: Lumix ZS50 / TZ70 - Crystal Clear

I fitted the glass because with this camera it is likely to be in and out of a pocket or small carry bag with a high potential to scratch the screen. This is a solid piece of glass that fits perfectly over the screen and if you follow the well set out instructions you can't go wrong. I have used this 'glass' product before on an iPad and it provides excellent protection hence my using it on the camera. I recommend this item with confidence.

I've just used my third Expert shield. This one was for a Panasonic G80, the first 2 were for a Canon.Frustratingly, they're very nearly perfect, but after putting in more bubbles than I can now get out for the second time (first time was with the first Canon screen) I've concluded that cheaper ones are just less frustrating as they have reduced expectation.Theyre easy enough to get on without bubbles the first time, but the problem is this: ES's are made too big. They're a perfect/exact size for the screen, but that's the problem. There is no margin for application. So when I first get it on, it looks perfect, but it's very slightly raised on one side where it's just off the edge of the screen, so the shield wont quite lie flat on that edge. This would drive me nuts over time, constantly seeing that side of the ES raised and clearly visible. So thus begins a round of removing the shield to re-apply, removing again to remove dust introduced whilst re-applying.... until it's just been taken up too many times and has too much dust under it. You really need to get it right on the first lay down. That's critical. If you do, bingo. A winner. If you don't, 60% chance it'll either end up in the bin or left on but heavily compromised. But it just doesn't need to be that critical. Just 0.2mm smaller all round would make it so much easier to get the critical first lay down with no bubbles or raised edges. If the thing had cost £3 I wouldn't worry. It didn't, I paid over £13 with postage. So I've just given up and resolved to simply take care of my naked screen and keep some microfiber cloth handy. My advice is to either do the same, or if you must, just go with a couple of the cheap ones because these are too expensive to end up in the bin.

Ridiculously expensive piece of 'plastic'. The rather odd use of jokes in the instructions does little to disguise the fact that excluding air-bubbles between the screen and the Expert Shield is not straightforward. I gave up in the end. Not a problem if you don't mind a few air-bubbles, but otherwise beware.

I didnt really read the description and I was expecting one of those naff plastic sheet covers thinking that it would last a year before I rip it off and go without. BUT joy of joys this is fantastic ! It's basically a solid and absolutely clear piece of glass. Goes on without any bubbles at all (and I am usually the bubble master) and fits perfectly. I genuinely wouldnt even know it was on there. Its brilliant. Brilliant I say ! Had 2 eggs for breakfast to celebrate.

Somewhat more difficult to apply than previous protectors but proving durable.

Usually I buy GGS glass screen protectors, but couldn't find one readily available for the LX100, so I bought this. Seems fine, if not quite as nice as a GGS. It feels more like perspex than glass, but I'm not an expert! It's actually about a mm too short (length) to fit neatly inside the screen bezel, but easy to fit and good enough. I don't plan on removing it ever, but nice to know that I can if I wish.

Got the Expert Shield GLASS product for my new LX100 Panasonic camera.The glass was a perfect fit. Good clear instructions on how to apply followed up by a friendly email form the company who advised me that they were there to help if I had any problems. The glass was very easy to apply. Once I had it lined up, I simply "dropped" into place. There was no squeezing out bubbles etc involved - very straight forward. Just make sure you are dust free first. Once in place you'd never know it wasn't just part of the camera screen. Very happy!

I have now fitted Glass Expert Shield protectors to my iPhone, Panasonic LX100 and Olympus E-M1 cameras. It's early days yet but the product seems particularly durable, is crystal clear and is the easiest protector to fit bubble-free, perhaps because it's a little stiffer and more robust. More expensive than the vinyl-type protectors but I think worth the extra layout. Highly recommended.
